This hunky, ripe blend of Grenache (50%), Syrah (40%) and Mourvdre (10%) is sourced from limestone and clay soils in the terraced plots of Gigondas. Big and warming with a densely packed core of blackberry flavor and fiery tannins, it's ready now, best alongside a juicy steak, and should hold through 2028.

Winemaker Notes
Deep on the nose with pronounced spicy aromas (pepper, nutmeg), typical of the appellation and which accentuate the aromas of blackcurrants and raspberry jam. On the palate, the wine shows a solid yet nicely coated structure, volume and superb length.

This Gigondas can be paired with guinea fowl, coq au vin, a beef stew or casserole, and other prepared dishes, even if spicy or highly seasoned.

Blend: 50% Grenache, 40% Syrah, 10% Mourvedre
